if you dont need to haul anything go for it. The MB is much better built as well as the design and parts are light years ahead of a domestic a whole decade newer. I find my '78 SL-C is more enjoyable to work on then my Lexus that was built two decades later.
The 124's are turning up in junkyards in droves, thus parts are easy to acquire. also the 124 is the last of the "fix them yourself" benz's. . .
